Re: Upload As more folks want to do such things as send videos, or do Off site data backups, upstream will become more and more important. Internet providers need to realize that the internet is a two way communications medium. They should not ignore those of us who want to make use of our upstream capacity, and I'm not even talking about p2p file sharing here.
I'm talking about such things as sending high quality videos to youtube, or performing off site backups using services such as carbonite or any other backup service or backing up to a dedicated server if one has that.
For now, not as many people generally do uploading, but that doesn't mean it should outright be ignored.
Here where I live, Time warner offers 2Mbps upload on their top tier, but although my modem is configured for 2mbps, the highest speed I can ever achieve even during non-peak time is about 1.3Mbps or so. I've taken my modem to other locations and have achieved my full 2Mbps upstream, so I wonder why I can't get it here?
I hope TWC will offer 5Mbps upstream to all it's user at least at some point. |
